Cactus Fly-In celebrates 65th year

By General Aviation News Staff · February 13, 2023 ·

The annual Cactus Fly-In and Hot Rod Show celebrates its 65th year in 2023, with the event set for March 4 at Casa Grande Municipal Airport (KCGZ) in Arizona.

Organized by the Classic Airplane Association of Arizona, the fly-in is held on the first weekend in March every year.

“We are not an airshow, but simply an old-fashioned fly-in where we try to gather as many antique aircraft and, now, autos as we can fit onto the airfield,” organizers say.

A donation of $10 a person or $20 a carload is suggested, however organizers note that aircraft and cars on display are not asked for a donation.

Organizers ask owners of display aircraft and autos to visit the fly-in’s website to learn more about how to register for the event.

As an added bonus for pilots, a ground school clinic for formation flying will be offered on Friday, March 3.

To find out more about the fly-in, go to CactusFlyIn.org

    Thank you much for including this announcement in your digital version of the “GAN”! The event is planning to host a large group of Antique and Classic aircraft and cars. Good Arizona weather would be a big help.
